AC/DC Fling Thing

[hotrodlover12]

His guitars unplugged

[RascoH12]

Fortunate bastard the one who has that ball right now

[6968shmoo]

cliff williams was actually born in romford not wales

[niklas12ful]

this version is way better than the studio one!

[goobadash]

They're Scottish Raised in Australia which makes them awesome hybrids :)

[gjroppa1]

Right now, this was doing the '78 world tour. it was during the world cup and the were back in scotland. so hence the footy shirts and that fab little ditty 'fling thing'. now back in the fifties there were a lot of folks emergrating to oz. the families YOUNG and SCOTT were among them, SO, they were born in scotland and went to OZ when they young kids. so now whenever ac/dc play in Glasgow they always play 'fling thing' or 'bonny' as it's also called.

[volcommecca]

The Young brothers and Bon, are born in Scottland end of story

AC/DC forever <3

[countyguy2003]

whats that solo hes playing at the beging 

[SeaCadet263]

@countyguy2003 I believe its a Scottish folk song but I'm not sure what its called.

[BonScottForever1]

@Riff28Raff hell yeah, AC/DC for life

[BonScottForever1]

@Riff28Raff its just falls weird on the ears aye

[BonScottForever1]

@Riff28Raff because when you call them "scots born australians" that technically means that they were born in australia to scottish parents. I know what you meant though

[BonScottForever1]

@Riff28Raff they are most definately an australian band, but you say in there that they are "scots born australian" they were actually born in scotland and moved here when they were younger. but all in all they are an australian band and even bon scott acknowledged that

[BonScottForever1]

@Riff28Raff hmm, right. well I have seen interviews where they both say that they are an australian band

[60ftfilms]

This is also on Family Jewels.  I just can't get enough of AC/DC playing live!

[Andymalcolm1]

I love AC/DC and i love both Scottland and Australia...great nations

[bonmarriott1234]

i am going to sort out this debate about them being scotts or aussies its simple when u think about it....malcom angus and bon are scottish...cliff and brian are english phil is aussie....but they are an australian band they formed in australia released a few albums in australia b4 they were international so there u go

[BonScottForever1]

@bonmarriott1234 they are an australian band, they even say so themselves. thats all you have to say to people

[svenmalcolm]

yes, but on the single, the song was : "Fling Thing", and on the liver version "Bonny" (?)

[reaperflynn3]

It is the same song, they started calling it My Bonny after Bon passed away.

[RockFromDownUnder23]

Check out AC/DC Live '92 version, just great.

[MaryWalshy]

what song is this? (well, originated from) i've heard it before :S

[HighwaytoACDC]

MaryWalshy, this is Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomond.

[rankiaru]

i'd like to play that song

[aitchie641]

who cares if they were born in scotland or not,i'm a scot too,but i also love the aussies...my uncle also emmigrated to australia in the sixties

[Kayes21]

makes me proud to be a cathcart scot to lol I LUV YAH ACDC!

[denisbodin]

I love :D

[angusholden]

who cares if they are Scottish or Australian guys and gals?

Born and Bred scotts that migrated to Aus, and ended up becoming the greatest band on earth, lets just enjoy AC/DC's rendition of a fantastic Scottish folk tune and get on with our lives.

makes me proud to be of Scottish Heritage.

The Cathcart's From Glasgow :D

[SeaCadet263]

@angusholden What is the name of that Scottish folk tune?!!!

[sergeantfan]

It astounds me that people are still debating on what nationality the band is. They are Scottish FULL STOP. And does it really matter? This is fucking brilliant and makes me proud to be Scottish! RIP Bon

[Gressa69]

yeah great !!!!!!

[dontaskwhyitissolong]

Scotland the brave!!

[mr4978]

lol its banks

[grahamblood]

Brian Johnson & Cliff Williams are both English. The only current member who's Australian is Phil Rudd. One Australian member does not make an Australian band, in my humble opinion.

[damolitioncrew]

You're right but four of them lived in Australia when they formed ACDC. That's why they are an Australian band.

[grahamblood]

So if I moved to China with 2 mates who are English, 2 who are Scottish & 1 who's American, we'd be a Chinese band? I don't think so matey!

[fordgtx193]

if you moved there when you were two years old and you grew up playing chinese music then you would

[digbycurrents]

No you wouldn't! Anyway, Angus was 8 years old when he moved to Australia. That's more than enough time to set your roots down. Angus is Scottish as is Malcolm & as was Bon.

[SeaCadet263]

@grahamblood Cliff is actually Welsh but w/e

[bonscottboy]

@grahamblood in my opinion AC/DC are a scottish-english-australian Band!

[mr4978]

YES SCOTLAND

[grahamblood]

It always amazes me why people refer to AC/Dc as an Australian band. Cliff & Brian are English, Bon, Angus & malcolm are/were Scottish.

[mr4978]

they are angus and Malcolm are australian but they were raised in scotland to the age of 10 then they went back to Australia and bon scott was born in cuirimuir scotland and the rest of the band are Australian

[Jamierfc1807]

No no, Angus and Malcolm are Scottish, and lived here till they were about 9 or 10, then moved to Australia.

Same as Bon Scott, he is Scottish and was born here, then moved to Australia when he was younger also.

[mr4978]

why does it say on angus youngs wikipedia that he is a scottish born Australian

[rymaniscool]

cuz hes australian but was born in scottland

[digbycurrents]

If he had Scottish parents & was born in Scotland, it means he's scottish. How many clues do you need??????????

[TrimTOODLE]

he was born in scotland.. and moved to austral.. quite simple mate !!

[grahamblood]

Thanks for the history lesson but as I first saw AC/DC live in 1979, I think I'm qualified to make valid comments. Bon, Angus & malcolm were born in Scotland to Scottish parents. That makes them SCOTTISH!

[Jamierfc1807]

right on the money grahamblood,

[BonScottForever1]

@grahamblood they are still an australian band. no matter where they were born. they formed here which makes them an australian band

[falconryfan]

They didn't go back to Australia. They moved there certainly, but they are Scottish with Scottish parents so they couldn't 'go back'.

Brian and Cliff are not Australian, they are English.

Phil however is an Aussie.

[thatgibsonguy0001]

Brian is hardcore scottish

[falconryfan]

Brian is not Scottish.He's English.

[barryboogle]

That will be banks of loch lomond Mr young not shore! O youll tak the high road and Ill tak the low road And Ill be in Scotland afore ye For me and my true love will ne-er meet again On the bonnie, bonnie banks o Loch Lomond.

[gautete]

[eddieshred92]

[lostcaus]

no its not its the first concert they played with a wireless guitar and amp and some people told him he was miming so he said "go on hit that then" and it made a noise

it shut them right up

[joka810]

[frogleshmee]

[AntiMercyDude]

[ACDCfanatic234]

Yeah, there were a few songs removed from there. Dog Eat Dog, Fling Thing, and I think there was a longer version of Rocker...I'm not sure.

[acdcangusfan]

It's just me or is Angus playing the rythm and Malcolm playing the main riff?

Long live AC/DC.
